Scientific paper

The current practices of modeling the dynamics of galaxies can be
projected for the next decade. The exponential growth of computer
capabilities has reached a threshold where the particle
representation is a superior way to capture subtleties of galactic
dynamics than Boltzmann's perfect phase-space fluid representation.
The up-to-now often neglected departures of strict symmetries and
time invariance of the actual Milky-Way, and the impact on dynamics
of stellar physics will need to be modeled in more detail in order
to match the observational data and extract more information of it
. This will be possible with the coming generation of computers
which will allow to represent each individual star of a galaxy.
Modeling the interstellar medium will remain a difficult problem for
more time though.
